WIndows mount problem

**daedalus703** · 08-28-2005

Hello,

I am having permission problems mounting my windows-controlled ntfs hard drive (hda) in Ubuntu (which is on a second harddrive.) I did

Code:

mkdir /mnt/win
mount  -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/win

I can view the mount as root but not as non-root (I get "Permission Denied") even though I have user in /etc/fstab:

Code:

/dev/hda1   /mnt/win   ntfs   ro,user,auto,exec   0   0

The results of the mount command yields

Code:

/dev/hda1 on /mnt/win type ntfs &#40;ro,noexec,nosuid,nodev&#41;

What can I do to make this viewable in non-root?

Thanks!

Try the following.

Code:

/dev/hda1            /windows/C           ntfs       ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=utf8 0 0

That did it.

Thanks again!
